They were wrong.
One choice fractured everything, leaving wounds none of them could name.
Twenty years later, they are drawn back into one another’s lives.
Old loyalties resurface. Buried truths come to light.

Once inseparable, they are bound by memory, betrayal, and the consequences of a friendship that shaped them all.
Intersections is an emotionally layered, character-driven novel about friendship, betrayal, regret, and the long shadow of a shared history.
Perfect for readers of Liane Moriarty, Celeste Ng, and Elif Shafak.
